Hi everyone,
we're looking for a new puppy and we came across a breeder that is NOT AKC registered. However, we saw the mom on sight who looks purebred but the papa shepherd wasn't. They claim the puppies are 100% purebred but I'd love your opinions on it. In this picture he is 6 weeks old. If he is not purebred can anyone guesstimate what his other 50% may be?

Looks like an adorable sable GSD to me.
Though I agree with Jelpy. You can't be 100% sure at this age.
So, the father is a mix? If the breeder says that the pups are pure bred, who told you that the father is a mix? Could you post pictures?

I don't have pictures of both the parents. I just saw the mom in person and then I saw the pops picture on the breeders phone. My friend(who's a german shepherd fanatic) says he doesn't seem purebred because he has pointy ears and not floppy ones.

I think they can stand at 6 weeks. But I also wondered about that.

In any case, he looks pure and adorable but unless you have papers from a trustworthy breeder you will never know for sure.
